I actually have the audio clip, not the video though. IIRC, it was just maps being played over the audio. Clip attatched...

When do you think you will be able to post the Evening Edition fiasco, if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks! :)

And Gary, It does make scence... but I just want to know why they dont take cough reliever before they go on air to prevent this from happening... unless if it was completely unexpected :whistling:

Many cough supressants contain ingredients that cause drowsiness. Can't have Carl falling asleep now, can we?  :bleh:

Now they're replacing the segment with a live re-shoot for this hour and the next repeat hour.

I think that they need to put someone else on air... he needs to go home if he keeps coughing...

He's done for the night now; he barely made it, but he made it while doing a satisfactory job given the circumstances nonetheless. :)

Okay, here's a larger 20MB clip (since that's about the biggest that Gary deems to be reasonable for downloading) of the coughing incident along with the EE music segment; by request, I'll also post a shorter clip of just the music portion a little bit later. Heck, I might just go do that anyway. I'll also try to put it up on YouTube sometime soon.

Even though it's not in my profile, today's my birthday, so I guess this as a nice little birthday present for me, coming only 5 minutes after midnight. :P

Somehow I had a feeling they would mess this up; they're replaying the segment right now instead of the corrected one; I'm getting an HD recording of it now...

That's a real shame :( get well soon, Carl.

And there are always delays in live broadcasting... if an OCM passes out on air, I highly doubt TWC would allow that to hit the air in the 3-5 second delays, they would immediately switch over to the emergency satellite feed, thus you're almost guaranteed to not see anything.

So wait...

Warren and Kristina did WWC/EE.
Adam did PME solo.
Who did the second part of EE/EEWC?

(EDIT: Sounds like that bizarre music cut that was on the Local a few days ago was part of the EE pack.  Why didn't they just go Trammel?)

I guess Carl's throat got very dry here in the winter months causing him to be very susceptible to all the germs floating around.  <_<

Thanks for the clips, Steve! :D I'm assuming Carl was solo, because surely if another OCM was present, he or she would have covered for Carl.

Correct. EEWC is always solo now.
